2007 Cadillac DTS Luxury II 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)

I have owned a 2007 DTS for almost 3 years and really enjoy it a lot. The ride, room, luxury feel and looks are what Cadillac built their reputation on and this car does not disappoint. The biggest caveat is that it must be driven like the big heavy boat it is or you will burn through gas, brakes and suspension parts, all of which can be expensive. I have yet to replace any brake components but have had to replace tie rods, etc.,after 2 years. I do not recommend for a youthful driver. It is built for a more mature experienced driver who anticipates rather than reacts to the road. If you are looking for a car under $6k that look and drives like you spent 10 times that, do consider the DTS. While repairs can be pricey they are far less than a BMW or Mercedes and are comparable to other GM products. The engine seems rock solid as does the tranny. It can't be beat for comfort on the highway and I get about 28mpg at 72mph. Town MPG varies from as low as 8 in the summer to 12 in moderate traffic.

GET ONE! BUT BE PREPARED FOR TEMPER TANTRUMS

2007 Cadillac DTS Luxury I 4dr Sedan (4.6L 8cyl 4A)

I never thought I'd buy a Cadillac, let alone a DTS. The interior is cheap, base speakers sound like a boom box, cooled seats are a joke, radio screen is obsolete in the daytime, the arm rest is as soft as a brick, the steering wheel only tilts up and down, and the outside temperature reading is located down on the climate control deck. I was a little unsure when I first bought her if she’d last beyond 2 years, but after my last 200 mile journey in the left (fast) lane at a consistent 80mph, I knew I had found my tribe. She can keep up with the best of them without sloppy or mundane handling like my 05 Town Car. The underrated NorthStar engine is simply amazing! so much so, that I can overlook the basic interior. She's a little temperamental with her annoying sensors and audible dings, but she'll never leave nor forsake you. The best part is most people wouldn't give her two looks, even the police. But that's where she shines as she stately passes everyone in her way without wavering.

Love my DTS...

I bought this car used six years ago and have driven it 2/3 of its life. It has been a pleasure to drive. I previously owned a 1992 Lexus LS 400 and was intending to drive it forever, but it was a little small for my husband. The DTS has met his need for more room and it had more "bells and whistles than my '92. It took a while to get used to the more "cushiony" drive, but after I did I fell in love with it. Could not live without OnStar. Only reason I am trading is because we need a higher car due to hip problems, so plan on getting an SRX. Otherwise would keep it for years more. Love it.

I just purchased a 1 owner '07 Cadillac DTS Performance for $17,995 with 68,000 miles. I love everthing about the car I did a year of research on the Cadillac DTS before I purchased one and the Performance is the best of them all. I got everything I wanted in the car.

Mystic Gray DTS

Fun to drive, tighter cabin feel,no gas tank release or lock, no automatic break release, rear trunk area too high, no auto trunk close/lock. Leaves a lot to be desired from the previous years of Cadillac ownership. Driver's seat really squeals with the leather rubbing against the console, rear headliner problems. Navigation is great, so is the Bose sound. Gas mileage is less than my previous DTS by three miles city and 2 miles highway. The higher end, shorter body makes it look more like a sport than a luxury sedan. The vehicle has enough power, but sure sucks up the gas when you, 'step on it'. Nice color coordination on the Mystic Gray ext. and the titanium interior.
